Before you go to the nearest acrobatics school, and you still need it, you should think carefully. During the classes you will have to overcome many fears and seriously work on your body. Admittedly, it is not so flexible and the exercise will have to be learned a little longer than for children. But it is possible, and this is the main thing.
How to learn acrobatics at home?
To start learning acrobatics you need to arm yourself with a great desire and a good coach. Having done this, in a short time you will learn to do the most simple tricks, for example, a bridge, a wheel, a twine, a stand on the head. You can start training yourself, doing basic exercises:
- Start with the neck, it must be well rinsed. Exercises are familiar from childhood: for 10-15 circular movements in different directions and as many inclines forward, back and sides.
- Go to the shoulders. Do them circular movements forward and backward also 10-15 times in each direction. Put your hands on your waist and start lifting your two shoulders together and up and down. After this, lift the shoulders in turn.
- Pay attention to the hands. To do this, take them into the lock and rotate back and forth. It's enough to do this for 30 seconds. Be sure to load the brushes, for this purpose take the emphasis lying on the fists and are in this position for at least 1 minute.
- At this stage, you can try to make a bridge. At first it will be difficult for you to stand on it from a standing position, so lie down on the floor and bend upwards. Try to stay for 5 seconds. Lie down and rest. To get on the bridge and return to the starting position must be at least 10 times. During the exercise, try to straighten your knees as much as possible and squeeze your shoulders.
- Sit on the floor. Legs should be together. Drag your hands to your toes, trying to touch your stomach to your knees. It is important that the knees at this time do not bend. If you can not hold your legs straight, bend them, wrap your arms around your feet and try your best to straighten them. Do the exercise about 20 times.
- In the sitting position, place your legs, wrap your arms around your feet and lean down. Try to reach your belly to the floor. Knees should be straight. Every time you cant, fix for 30 seconds.
- We remain in the previous position and stretch to the sides. First to the left foot, then to the right leg. Each time we try to reach the belly to the knee and fix in the maximum possible slope for 30 seconds.
- We pass to the twine. There are three types of twine and you need to work on each of them separately. Put your left foot on your knee, and pull the right one forward until it hurts. After that, fix for 15 seconds. Do the exercise several times and then change your foot.
Put your feet apart as widely as you can before the pain. Place your hands on the floor in front of you, and carry the weight to the pelvis. Lock in this position for 1 minute. Relax and again repeat the exercise, this time fixing for 2 minutes.
These simple exercises will help you prepare for lessons with the coach. You will feel more confident and able to perform complex tricks.
